Norbrook Launch Eprizero® A 2nd Generation Eprinomectin Wormer

Norbrook Laboratories Ltd has launched a second generation Eprinomectin Pour On solution with zero milk withhold and an improved 10 day meat withdrawal period. Eprizero®, for beef and dairy cattle, is indicated for the treatment and prevention of a range of economically damaging gutworm and lungworm infections and external parasites in one easy-to-use pour on application. It offers zero milk withhold and an improved meat withdrawal period of just 10 days. “Norbrook has launched Eprizero to offer vets and farmers a more versatile alternative in the treatment of economically damaging worms and external parasites,” explains Mr Andrew Hillan MVB MRCVS, Director of Veterinary Science, Norbrook Laboratories Ltd. “The active ingredient in Eprizero, Eprinomectin, is both potent and fast-acting and is supported by independent studies which show increased milk yield, improved fertility and increased dry matter intake following treatment. With a zero milk and 10 day meat withdrawal and waterproof properties, Eprizero offers real versatility to vets and farmers in terms of when and where they treat. It is this versatility that we believe will make Eprizero the gold standard in anthelmintic treatment for prolonged infestations of gut worm and lung worm in both dairy and beef cattle.” Eprizero is available in four ready-to-use sizes – 250ml, 1L, 2.5L and 5L – with a free 75ml gun supplied with the two larger pack sizes and is administered using a 75ml dispensing gun to enable easy-to-use and accurate application. “The launch of Eprizero is further indication of the unparalleled level of technical expertise that exists within Norbrook’s research and development department, particularly in developing large animal products. We have a long-established reputation of being first to market with high quality second generation products which have been very well received in the marketplace,” adds Mr Hillan. “In developing second generation products, our ethos is to look for ways to improve on existing products. In the case of Eprizero, we have improved the formulation which has reduced the meat withhold period by one third and we offer dedicated dispensing guns to allow easier and more accurate administration. Eprizero comes from a strong and exciting pipeline of new products which we will bring to the market over the next couple of years.” Eprizero is registered for use in the UK and Ireland and is available to order from your local Norbrook Sales Representative.
